Filter by:This study will monitor device performance and outcomes in subjects undergoing implantation of the Edwards SAPIEN 3 Transcatheter Pulmonary Valve System with Alterra Adaptive Prestent in the post-approval setting
The purpose of this study is to characterize the functionality of transcatheter implantation of the Medtronic Harmony Transcatheter Pulmonary Valve (TPV) achieved by real-world implanters.
The present study evaluates patients after interventional therapy of valvular diseases of the right heart. Follow-up examinations include medical history taking, laboratory measurements and an echo. The aim is to assess the different interventional therapies and their impact on patient's outcome.
Tetralogy of Fallot (ToF) is a congenital heart defect with four major features including right ventricular outflow tract obstruction. About 25 children are born with this condition in Denmark every year. Corrective surgery is usually performed within the first year. In 50 % of patients, enlargement with a patch is necessary to achieve relief of the outflow tract obstruction. This however results in severe pulmonary regurgitation, which eventually leads to volume overload, right ventricular dysfunction and arrhythmia. To avoid these late complications, pulmonary valve replacement with a prosthesis if performed when patients meet the current guideline criteria. Most patients meet the guideline criteria for revalving when they are between 20 and 30 years of age. The current guidelines however, are based solely on retrospective studies and novel research reveals that in more than 50 % of patients who are treated according to current practice, right ventricular volumes and function as well as exercise capacity and burden of arrhythmia do not normalize or improve. 500 patients with ToF will be enrolled in a multicentre, cross-sectional study, which will yield information about the long-term outcomes after initial repair of ToF, as well as suggestions about the optimal timing for re-valving. Among patients included in the cross-sectional study, 120 patients with free pulmonary regurgitation, will be randomized evenly for early or later re-valving with at least 10-years of follow-up, for evaluation of long-term efficacy and safety of early re-valving.
Venus-P Valve (Venus Medtech, Shanghai, China) is the first self-expandable interventional Pulmonary Valve, which is composed of a Nitinol multilevel support frame with a tri-leaflet porcine pericardial tissue valve, and a 14-22 Fr delivery catheter. The purpose of the multi-center trial is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the Venus-P Valve for percutaneous pulmonary valve implantation (PPVI) in patients pulmonary regurgitation and native right ventricular outflow tract (RVOT) after surgical repair of RVOT.
